It is advantageous on my part if what I buy in bulk are in canned or bottled for they won't depreciate, but appreciate it, especially if the other stores ran out of them. There are disadvantages f buy in bulk for perishable goods. They will surely rot and you'll have big loses.

If it is in a food industry, it will be a waste of money and energy if buying in bulk. Because they will be spoiled or rotten if they were not sold out.

You can save some money by buying in bulk because when you buy bulk, you get discounts, however, buying bulk is also a wastage because you will be hoarding items that you don't need immediately.

Another thing is it's price may come down and then it'll be a major loss

Depend on what am buying in bulk though, one major problem i have discovered with bulk buying is that one can easily get Carried about, it would be pretty hard to monitor how its been used, hence it could lead to wastage. Another problem is if its in the case of perishable goods, they could go bad before using them all.

You might not be able to finish all the food before the expiration date since it is too much. Aside from the possibility of food spoiling, this discourages you from purchasing.

For me bulky buying requires a larger amount of money. Since the bulky means a larger quantitiy of items in one container the price for it can be very expensive.
